- KRN-101, a natural, psilocybin-based, fixed-ratio, prescription-only medicine, which targets cancer-related distress allowing accelerated regulatory access through the major regulatory bodies, such as the MHRA/EMA in the United Kingdom and Europe, as well as the FDA in the United States.
- KRN-101 will also be developed for Alcohol Use Disorder as a secondary indication, pursuing accelerated regulatory access in Canada and Europe.
- Albert Labs has agreed to a Letter of Intent (LOI) with Cannabis Science, Inc. to review their CBIS 001, a cannabinoid-based drug asset for treating cancers. CBIS 001 has successfully completed drug discovery in conjunction with Harvard Medical School, with the results published in Frontier Oncology Journal. This LOI explores the potential of Albert Labs expertise taking CBIS 001 through pre-clinical studies in Portugal, Pharmacokinetic studies in Australia, and Real World Evidence accelerated regulatory access pathways in the United Kingdom.
- A clinical review spearheaded by industry-leading pre-clinical researcher, Dr Ricardo Dinis (University of Porto), of naturally occurring potential drug candidates with anxiolytic properties and a historically safe toxicity profile, with the potential for subsequent licence indications, which include anxiety, and insomnia.
